Musician and NPP member Guru was announced the winner of the polls on Wednesday, 19 September 2024. Alongside his running mate, Jeffery Adu-Yeboah, he secured an overwhelming 9,455 votes out of a total of 18,659 valid votes cast, representing 50.7% of the total.
His candidacy for the SRC elections was marked by controversy prior to the polls. Guru had filed a petition against the University of Ghana’s Student Representative Council (SRC) Electoral Commission after being disqualified from the presidential race due to his non-residential status, which violated Article 30 of the SRC Constitution.
